Got this bag to carry my Canon 40D w/ grip, 3 lenses, flash, and all the other accessories I will ever use out in the field. The moveably padding dividers keeps my gear from banging around, the shoulder strap is super comfy, the hip belt helps keep the load secure. I've had this out for 10+ miles hiking, and have felt it to be extremely comfortable, not to mention the convenience of the external water bottle pocket. I have used the included rain cover on a couple of occasions, and it has a secure, reliable fit. But as will all rain covers, it isn't going to make the pack completely waterproof. When I initially purchased this pack, I thought I would get the shoulder strap harness accessory, but found didn't didn't make the pack any more comfortable. I found the included shoulder strap to be more secure in carrying this pack. Having the top lid open away from you makes it very convenient to grab gear on the go, and provides a stable platform for changing out lenses. Solid pack!
